Love Emerged

Trusting you, I let love emerge, one gentle moment at a time. Each embrace, your arms did purge, the bitter dregs of faithless wine. One gentle moment at a time, you softly, sipped away my tears. The bitter dregs of faithless wine, no longer bound me in fear. You softly sipped away my tears as I felt my hearts rebirth. No longer bound me in fear, the shy uncertainty of my worth. As I felt my hearts rebirth, each embrace,your arms did purge, the shy, uncertainty of my worth. Trusting you, I let love emerge

I must say there have been so many diverse poems shared here at PoetrySoup yesterday and this morning that I am just now being able to read. Each one is a treasure to the poet who wrote it. It is a pleasure to me to be able to read them. I am so happy yours was among the ones I have read today Paula. Love, Carol
